Abstract

Das vorliegende Buch bietet einen umfassenden Beitrag zum Bestreben neuro- und kognitionswissenschaftliche Erkenntnisse in die neutestamentliche Exegese zu integrieren. Für dieses Vorhaben eignen sich veränderte Bewusstseinszustände insbesondere, da sie auf allgemein menschlichen Strukturen des Gehirns beruhen und in sehr vielen Kulturen Teil der religiösen Praxis waren und sind. Anklänge daran finden sich auch in biblischen Visionserzählungen. Die Untersuchung bietet neben einer Einführung in die Philosophie des Geistes und notwendigen naturwissenschaftlichen Grundlagen sowie einer hermeneutischen Reflexion eine breit angelegte Darstellung der antiken Erfahrungen mit veränderten Bewusstseinszuständen anhand ihrer Induktionsrituale. Die gewonnenen Erkenntnisse werden dann auf die Verklärungserzählung angewendet.

Abstract

En un contexto latinoamericano caracterizado por la postsecularidad, la figura poética de Cristo plasma una triple motivación: una crítica al fundamento teológico del poder, una búsqueda de sentido y la esperanza en una sociedad más justa. Apoyándose en un marco interdisciplinario que combina las herramientas de la crítica literaria con las de la filosofía, la sociología y la teología, el libro examina las representaciones crísticas en un amplio corpus poético chileno que culmina con la obra de Raúl Zurita (1950). Tras definir la matriz latinoamericana de la figura crística (tanto en el legado colonial como en el lenguaje de las vanguardias), el estudio indaga en la obra de catorce autores y autoras de Chile de los últimos cien años. Desde la lira popular de Araneda hasta la poética del duelo de Zurita, pasando por los Anticristos de Huidobro, las escenas de lenguaje de Nicanor Parra o las experiencias de éxtasis en Rosenmann-Taub, la poesía chilena pone al desnudo una crisis metafísica que es también una crisis del lenguaje.

Abstract

The Cambridge Edition of Early Christian Writings provides the definitive anthology of early Christian texts from ca. 100 CE to ca. 650 CE. Its volumes reflect the cultural, intellectual, and linguistic diversity of early Christianity, and are organized thematically on the topics of God, Practice, Christ, Community, Reading, and Creation. The series expands the pool of source material to include not only Greek and Latin writings, but also Syriac and Coptic texts. Additionally, the series rejects a theologically normative view by juxtaposing texts that were important in antiquity but later deemed 'heretical' with orthodox texts. The translations are accompanied by introductions, notes, suggestions for further reading, and scriptural indices. The third volume focuses on early Christian reflection on Christ as God incarnate from the first century to ca. 450 CE. It will be an invaluable resource for students and academic researchers in early Christian studies, history of Christianity, theology and religious studies, and late antique Roman history.

Abstract

Since the fourth century, Christians have wrestled with how they should interact with political authority. The most common view holds that while their ultimate loyalty rightfully belongs to God, Christians also have allegiance to their countries and a moral responsibility to transform their political systems. The author provides a normative critique of this conventional view and advances an alternative approach. While it may seem natural for the church to fervently engage in political life and cultivate a close relationship with the state, Saiya argues that such beliefs result in a 'paradox of privilege'. As he shows, when the church yields to the seduction of political power when enjoying the benefits of an alliance with the state, it struggles to adhere to its tenets, and when it resists the allure of state power, it does its best work.

Abstract

"Die neutestamentlichen Passionserzählungen sind Glaubenstexte auf der Basis des Alten Testamentes, keine historischen Berichte. Erlauben sie dennoch Aussagen zum Prozess Jesu? Michael Theobald zieht Bilanz aus der Forschung der letzten 100 Jahre und entwirft einen neuen Zugang zur Geschichte und Theologie der letzten Tage Jesu."

Abstract

This volume offers a critical edition and translation of Jacob of Serugh’s Homily on the Apostle Thomas and the Resurrection of Our Lord that focuses on John 20:19–28. The introduction describes the twenty-nine manuscripts that preserve the homily, details the construction of a stemma, presents case studies of editorial decisions based on neo-Lachmannian principles, and explains the systems of punctuation, orthography, and diacritical points. It also draws attention to the reception of the homily by attending to the producers and users of the manuscripts as well as the homily’s transmission in exegetical, liturgical, and hagiographical collections. The apparatus and appendices highlight paratextual marginalia, excerpts of the homily in the Syriac “Masora,” the incorporation of the homily into a liturgical rite, additions to the homily, and section divisions in manuscript witnesses. Overall, the volume seeks to navigate between employing a neo-Lachmannian editorial praxis and addressing the interests of material philology.

Abstract

"The only narratives of Jesus' birth locate the event in Bethlehem, but the adult Jesus is consistently associated with Nazareth. How do we reconcile these two indisputable facts? Some dismiss Bethlehem as a theologoumenon, a theological fabrication. Others insist on Bethlehem based on the census of Quirinius. In the present volume, N. Clayton Croy argues that both are wrong. Instead Jesus' birthplace was determined by the scandalous nature of Mary's pregnancy, with it being necessary for Mary and Joseph to escape the inevitable shame of an ill-timed conception and decamp to a less hostile environment. In this light, a Bethlehem-born Jesus who grew up in Nazareth should never have been considered problematic"--

Abstract

"Die Lehre vom Heiligen Geist hat innerhalb der westlichen Theologie lange ein Schattendasein gefristet. Erst seit der zweiten Hälfte des 20. Jahrhunderts wurden Versuche unternommen, die Pneumatologie stärker zur Geltung zu bringen, insbesondere in der Christologie. Geistchristologien sind dabei immer wieder massiver Kritik ausgesetzt, verweisen aber zugleich auf das drängende Problem einer hermeneutischen Klärung des Verhältnisses von Christologie und Pneumatologie. Der Band begreift diese Herausforderung als ökumenisches Projekt und versammelt historische und systematische Denkangebote."--
